Official Sensor/GUI Link Thread

Just a warning on the accelerometer in the kit.

The connector, while it fits, is misleading. The red wire is actually ground and the black wire is Vcc. The signal wire is correct.

The datasheet on FIRST's website has the correct pinout.

I haven't opened the kit yet, we didn't receive it here in Brazil, it’ll only come on Monday.

I didn't see anything in the kit, either.

The user_routines_DDT.c and user_routines_fast_DDT.c is in a *.zip file with the CMUcam2 information. It is in the IFI site at http://www.ifirobotics.com/docs/cmuc...-software1.zip.

It's there at http://kevin.org/frc

Th PID controler and everything else
I'm just wondering what Encoder and What Gyro we should use for it to work properly

I haven't had enough time to look at the software, but I know that it's the one we've been looking for

Thanks, sorry for the Bad English

If you look in command.h, you'll find the list of commands and their parameters. Then look in robot.c and you'll see how the commands are executed.
